Good day, I appreciate if you could provide me with the Honda F190 manual, I have the parts list, however, i still need the user manual (In English), and any other F190 related manuals would be of good benefit.

My email is: sultannidal@gmail.com

Another query; I got a rotavator for my Honda F190, and I wonder the quantity and type of oil that I should fill it in before using it.

Simon and Ted, thanks for the replies. Yes I will need some trans parts. I have emailed a chap in UK and waiting for his response to my actual parts search. I used his online parts catalog so I have the original part #s from that. I’m in the US, on the West coast so anyone stateside would be great.

Thanks wristpin, I thought I would ask first before I bought some thread gauges.

[vhgmcbuddy]

None of my engine literature makes any reference to the threads used but perhaps the spanner sizes needed for any nuts or bolts will give a clue. If they require AF spanners, measured Across the Flats, I would suggest that the treads will be UNF and UNC. If on the other hand, they need BSW/BSF spanners where the size relates to the diameter of the threaded component, the thread forms are likely to be BSF and Whitworth. Alternatively, you could check any other threaded components with thread gauges – respectively cheap and always useful.

THANK YOU APPRECIATED..

Have had to machine exhaust port and drill and redrill and and tap stud holes. Are the threads on this engine UNF or BSF?

Just remember that you are playing with mains electricity so I suggest that anything that you do should be via a residual current device RCD. Don’t just rely on your household box to protect you – its actually there to protect the house !
If you are determined to fiddle around with it I suggest connecting a short fly lead to the choc bar connecter where you have the white and orange wires connected and plug it straight into your RCD and wall socket.
If it runs ok you have isolated the issue to the mains cable and switch – if not I’d bin it.

Hi,if it’s any help I have 2 gems for spares,let me know what you need

[vhgmcbuddy]

Many thanks, the HS suffix is mentioned in the technical spec and denotes 3hp instead of 2.5hp.

[vhgmcbuddy]

Not sure about the HS suffix but here is a scan of a Mk15 manual

Can you be a bit specific about what model you have or even add an image or two? I have the Flymo workshop manuals from the late 70s so may be able to assist.

[vhgmcbuddy]

Thank you Stuart,

That makes more sense now, given that my engine doesn’t marry up to the manual.
